God Sovereign in Suffering

Few people seem to question or object whenever people suffer due to their own evil or foolish choices and decisions. If we do wrong, the reasoning goes, then we must pay the consequences. That’s just how it works. At the same time, though, we must admit that there are also times when there is often no correlation between the amount of wrong we commit and the amount of pain we suffer. In fact, often it is just the opposite. So, what do you do when you are doing everything (or most everything) right, and suddenly everything goes wrong? And why would a wise, good, and loving God allow such suffering to take place?

This Week's Message: God Sovereign in Relief

Relief. When suffering has ended and the weight is lifted. When times of sorrow are over. When the hope of a better tomorrow becomes today. At the conclusion of the book of Job, Job enters such a period of relief, but what can modern Christians learn from this part of the story? Will our troubles eventually fade away? Will we enter relief as well? Who decides? Do we play a role? This week, we'll look at God's sovereignty in relief and see that we have more in our future than even Job could imagine.
